DURHAM, N.C. (WRAL) - A Black softball player in North Carolina says she felt forced to cut her hair during a game.
The high school sophomore says the umpires enforced a rule that she calls discriminatory.
Nicole Pyles and others now are pushing for change.
The Hillside High School player loves the game of softball.
“The umps came up to my coach asking about my beads, and so I was just like, well, it’s fine,” she said. “I’ll tuck, I’ll put them away.”
